That why the author said his fate is doom from the beginning. Go with XY is good, but he can't abandonned his…
Ik, especially after them going to that place for a date and him telling her what he said to win the bet. GG probably saved him from living like that. I really don't think anyone in that kind of a situation would be able to just up and abandon the one that saved them for love. And Xuan is all XY really has left in this world, plus the promise they made to their elders. She can't just abandon him either. This is why I hate the whole star-crossed lover trope cause it's always so heartbreaking 😭😭😭
In her conversation with her grandpa, you can tell she's considering/likes both XL and Jing but will ultimately pick the one who can/will give up everything for her. I also feel like the whole "running away" convo alludes to the fact that if XL/FFB was not bound by duty/loyalty to the one that saved him/adopted him, he'd be with her carefree.
Bruh XL/FFB looked so mad...but XY wasn't lying! CX did tell her to go make nice with Jing! It's not her fault she's loyal to her cousin/brother 😭😭 he's her family! Ugh. FFB/XL is killing me with these looks.
Also Xuan you don't get to lurk in the shadows angrily you crust!! You told her to do this and she wouldn't have if not for you.
